Monkey Bread

Method

Preparation and Baking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    If using store-bought dough, let it thaw. If making from scratch, prepare your bread dough and allow it to rise.

  2. 2

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Mixture

    In a bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon until well combined.

  4. 4

    Cut and Coat Dough

    Divide the dough into bite-sized pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then dip each ball into melted butter and coat with the cinnamon sugar mixture.

  5. 5

    Assemble Monkey Bread

    Place the coated dough balls into a greased bundt pan, layering them as you go.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  7. 7

    Make Frangelico Cream Cheese Icing

    In a bowl, beat together 4 oz of cream cheese, 1 cup of powdered sugar, 2 tbsp of Frangelico, and 1-2 tbsp of milk until smooth.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Once the monkey bread is out of the oven, drizzle the Frangelico cream cheese icing over the warm bread. Serve immediately.
